Aston Villa 1 Knuckledraggers crawl back under their stones 0 Post match thread.

[LukeJames]

Over on SHA the peaky blinders are full of it because they smashed a few windows in a pub and ran off. Then they got escorted to the ground 15 minutes before kick off when most fans were in the ground, and again are claiming some kind of result.

Must say considering there were thousands of them in the Holte, the stand went mental when we scored. Bodies everywhere watching it back (I was lower North). They did a good job in blending in by celebrating our goal wildly, well done noses.

I barely saw any of their fans all day/evening, apart from in the ground and a pissed up bunch of 14/15 year olds on the train from new street to Aston.

A word or two on Small Heath's kit. What a hideous mess. Looks like something out of Thunderbirds but plastered with a multitude of tacky adverts.
Everything about that club is cheap and nasty.

[PeterWithe]

There was a group of about 50/60 in stealth mode walking down Witton Lane, had most of WMP with them who seemed to take great delight in hitting Villa fans with truncheons as they went over to wish them good luck in the game.

I noticed Midlands Today this morning buried the football results. Call it paranoia but had the result been reversed I think it would have been the main story.

It almost was, too. Anyone watching the edition that went out just before 7am? According to the caption, it finished 1-1 last night.

What did you think of the game Savospit? I suppose the class of the history and £50m team shone through in the end. Did you go? Savo? Savo? Where has that lad gone?

You're selling us short there.  The first nose I heard on the WM phone-in on the way home after the game said that we already had a £50m team from last season and had added £40m in the summer making it a £90m side.  The very next one phoned up saying how proud she was of the Blues before signing off by saying that she was now "waiting to see who Villa get in the next round and come on Liverpool on Saturday".  Great stuff!!

Yeah I heard that. They had some seriously bitter Bluenoses calling in right after the match. Comedy gold.

Rowett's only been at the Sty for a few months yet he seems be as bitter as the best of them already.

They showed of clip of him reacting to their chance towards the end, and he jumps out of the dugout and then kind of winces a bit at the miss, but it looks put on.

You know deep down he was thinking "Ah, you wanker, ha ha" like the rest of us.

Yes, I saw that. The noses will be moaning soon that they haven't given themselves enough tickets for the replay.

[The Edge]

I'd rather use his "impact" for the whole game.

yeah well he don't seem able to "impact" the whole game yet does he?

[LeeB]

Smashing windows in a pub with children in it, how pathetically cowardly can you get?

This is the rags we're talking about? That's one area where they excel.

Well that's how it should be. Can't see why us beating a permanently second division team should even register  as a news item? Other way round it is big news.

[LeeB]

This morning has been like an echo through time from 93-94, the big B-lose book of excuses has clearly been passed down for the next generation to exhaust.

[PeterWithesShin]

They do seem to be enjoying a few moral victories from last night. Meanwhile, i'm enjoying a real victory, not a made up one.

[PeterWithe]

One of my mates was having a pop about our fans boo-ing at half time, I told him that must have been all the nose masses in our end. The look of confusion on his face was a picture.

[Des Little]

What on earth are we doing taking the ball into the corners with 10 minutes left to play?  We were playing Blues, at home...not Barcelona on the pissing Nou Camp. 

And while I'm ranting, when we are clinging on to a 1-0 lead against lower league opposition at home, we're most certainly not 'taking the piss'.  That shit chant is best kept for the once in a lifetime occasion when we look like even we won't fuck it up.
